Pond Clinic

The Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District will hold their annual pond clinic on Wednesday, June 4, 2008 at the Winton Center , located at 10245 Winton Rd. in Green Hills , Ohio . The clinic will be held from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.

For over 25 years, the District has sponsoring annual Pond Clinics to provide information to owners or prospective owners regarding issues associated with farm and recreational ponds, however, this year’s clinic offers expanded topics. In addition to addressing the traditional pond, this program will also feature new topics on water gardens and storm water retention/detention ponds maintenance.

We often see the “lakes” in new subdivisions. Many Homeowner Associations are surprised to find out that the purpose of these basins is to control storm water and they require specific protection and maintenance.

Experts and speakers will be on hand to discuss and answer questions about pond construction, fish stocking, aquatic weed control, pond aeration, water gardens and storm water detention pond maintenance.

Parents are encouraged to bring the kids along because as they learn about ponds, there will be supervised educational activities for children! The cost of both adult and children’s programs are free, but you must pre-register at with Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District. For additional information and registration, call (513) 772-7645. Hope to see you there.
